What happens if I fail my second language in the IGCSE 10th grade exam in India?
Hello Puja,
It depends on what you want to study in the future and if that subject is part of the admission requirement. It?s best to check the entry requirements either from the university?s website or contact the university directly.
hello, im a student studying in sharjah i wanted to know what exam specification am i suppose to study on?
Hello,
You can revise the subjects from the beginning. Highlight the important facts that you think could be on the test (you should refer to the latest syllabus on what is expected during exams here: https://www.igcsecentre.com/cambridge-igcse-subjects-syllabuses/). You can then use the past exam papers (https://www.igcsecentre.com/cambridge-igcse-past-exam-papers/) as your revision. Start with the latest papers as they have the newest syllabus format and continue with the older ones date back from 5 to 10 years. Then, revise on the most common mistakes that you always seem to make. Pay attention to the most common mistakes you always seem to make. Make notes and revise them, so you can avoid making the same mistakes in your actual exam.

If you’re sitting in for your IGCSE in 2019, you should use the 2019 syllabus. The exams will be based on the updated syllabus.
hie i would want to know if its possible to go to pre university using igcse subjects to do engineering . what subjects are required
Hello Atipa,
The normal process would be: after completing IGCSE, proceed to any A level/IB/any equivalent qualification, then university. But it depends on the university you wish to apply to. Some university offer foundation programs which do not require A level. With regards to subjects, good guideline is English, Maths, Additional Maths, Physics, Chemistry. You should get the confirmation from the university on their entry requirement.
